If you could only re-experience from new one game (like total immersion, wide-eyed wonder-at-the-majesty-of-it-all re-experience) and had yet to pick a console (Xbox versus PlayStation), what game on which console and why? (and feel free to remark on ideal controllers, add-ons, etc.)

I was hoping Starfield might be that kind of galvanizing experience, but the reviews are pretty underwhelming. So now casting about for the real deal.

Easy game choice for me, Outer Wilds. I’ve regularly said that I wish I could go back in time and experience it again. I am a PS5 fan personally, Xbox has too much overlap with PC gaming.

There are some games that truly cannot be re-experienced. Once you know what happens in The Outer Wilds, it never hits the same on a replay. Anyone reading this who doesn't know exactly what I'm talking about needs to play the game before someone spoils it

Definitely Outer Wilds for me too and it isn’t close. Such a great experience.
